CHALLENGE #7

Design-your-own recruitment strategy. What are we missing? How do we find more amazing people like YOU?! You know what appeals to your most invested friends and classmates. Design your own outreach challenge; share your idea with us (please don't use the GT logo without permission); we'll get back to you right away, and you can initiate your challenge. Your design could be part of next year's Alumni Challenge. We can't wait to learn from you!

Future GT Teaching Fellows will learn about the program from you. We are incredibly grateful for your support and time.
